The suffrage movement means right to vote or franchise. This movement organised by the British women in the early 20th century to win political rights and for the participation in government. During the World War-1, the struggle for the right to vote got strengthened. This struggle comes to be known as suffrage movement. 

Accomplishments of Suffrage Movement :During the World War-1, men were away from their house fighting in the battle field. At this time, women were called upon to do the work, which were earlier done by men. Women did their best and try to manage and organize different kinds of works. People wonder to know that the women can do such work. Women began to be seen as being equally capable for doing hard work and making decision. 

Consequently ,British women organised a protest movement against the government's policy of not allowing them to vote.The participants,known as suffragists,even employed violent methods and they chained themselves in rallying in public places and meetings. Finally in 1928 British women won the right to vote on equal terms with men. In America, women were given right to vote in 1920.
